1945: It's Impossible

It's Impossible

The life-and-death contract hanging in front of the stage spontaneously combusted into ashes.1

Qiao Mu gazed at the young lady who died on the stage and shook her head.

A familiar voice suddenly entered her ears. "Hey, hey, this young senior sister, can you tell me what kind of deep enmity these two senior sisters had to fight a life-and-death battle in the arena?"

"Sigh, Brother Little Fatty, you might laugh hearing about it. These two senior sisters liked the same senior brother at the same time, but that senior brother was wavering between the two of them. As a result, these two senior sisters made this arrangement to fight for that man."

"Wow, your academy even encourages students to become couples?"

"Brother Little Fatty, don't slander us. Of course the academy doesn't encourage this. Come here, come here, you can't tell anyone else what I'm about to tell you…"

Qiao Mu stretched her neck and glimpsed the little fatty being surrounded by three to four fashionably-dressed young senior sisters. He had gone with them to the side to chat and probe them for information.

She instantly could somewhat understand why Kou Hongzhen that guy hated the little fatty so much.

There was no doubt about it, even though the chatty little fatty was a bit pudgy, his round and plump face was rather cute, which was much adored by older females.

The little fatty had always been rather popular with the ladies.

Qiao Mu turned to say to Crown Prince Mo and Feng Chen. "Let's head back."

They had finished watching the excitement. It was crowded here, and there wasn't anything else fun happening.

Not long after the three of them squeezed their way out of the crowd, another male and female started exchanging moves on the stage to compare notes. The atmosphere in the arena started getting stirred up again.

"Senior Sister Yu Gui, what are you looking at?" Jiang Qi walked up to Yu Gui and asked in a low voice.

When she came over, she saw Yu Gui standing outside the crowd and dumbly looking in one direction in some kind of stupor.

Yu Gui was startled. She recovered her wits and said with a shake of her head, "Ha, it was probably my imagination. It's impossible! Let's go."

"Hm? What's impossible? What did you see exactly?"

Yu Gui laughted bitterly. "When I came over just now, my eyes was probably playing tricks on me, and I mistook someone's back silhouette to be Little Junior Sister's."

"Little Junior Sister?" Jiang Qi mumbled to herself and sighed. "Little Junior Sister should be 15 this year, right."

"Mhm," Yu Gui replied softly. "Even though Little Junior Sister is naturally gifted, she must walk the heaven-ascension stairs to get to the Six Prefectures Continent from the Lower Star Domain. No matter how talented she is, it is impossible for her to come in three years' time."

"Yeah." Jiang Qi nodded. "Senior Sister, we have to go back to prepare too. The mentor just came to notify us that we'll be leaving tomorrow at 7 in the morning."

"Okay." Yu Gui turned around and said, "Let's go. We need to make thorough preparations. This time, we must obtain the qualifications to cultivate on Blinsheet Island."

This meant that all of them needed to make it onto the academy competition's individual top 100 ranking.

They carried a debt of blood and urgently needed to improve!

Time waited for no one!

Only by working hard nonstop would they not disappoint the sect's grace and training.

When Qiao Mu, Mo Lian, and Feng Chen opened the door to their small courtyard, they saw that the five mentors had gathered at the stone table waiting for them.

Qi Xuanxuan looked at her pitifully and looked as if she had gone through the wringer.
